It's a beauty Matt, is it an OM? Kinda hard to tell from that angle. I still have a couple sets of that stuff but not till someone wants a custom job. Can't wait to see more pics.

Thanks guys,

Lance and Steve: yes I did this cutaway on my hot pipe, I have yet to master the fox bender method with out breaking, so I avoid the access anxiety.

I have to say I like doing that bend by hand, i feel like i have more control over the outcome. I do use a thin piece of spring steel on top of the wood as I bend by hand this helps keep some of the moisture in.

John How, thanks my friend, yes it is my OM, and only the second venetian cutaway I have done. I too have just 2 more sets of this stuff that I am saving as well for something special.

Brother Tom : N.F.W. am I bringing this one to Newport, this is just a warm up guitar and I think I may have it sold already, but if not I`ll bring it with me to an upcoming N.E.L. meeting.
you could come down to the cape and hang out with me sometime ya know!

Thanks again everyone
